Our Health Guarantee & Puppy Purchase Agreement
When you choose a Weepin Oaks Boxer puppy, our priority is matching each pup with a caring, responsible home. Before you buy, please review the health guarantee outlined below. We invest considerable time, attention and expense keeping our adult dogs healthy, current on vaccinations and well cared for, and we take our litters to the vet for everything they need. Raising dogs and puppies carries real costs, and we do our part by offering a written health guarantee that many breeders do not. In return, we ask you to be a responsible owner and honor your side of the agreement.
Registering your puppy is a one-time step, and the fee supports research, inspections and emergency assistance. You are getting a purebred dog with known breeding behind it, so why not register? Keeping your pup on NuVet supports immune health. If you skip NuVet and later report that your pup developed Demodex, that is not something we can take responsibility for. Perhaps you wanted to save a little money, but treatment will cost far more and your health guarantee would be voided. Every dog here is on NuVet, and nursing mothers receive it twice daily because of the stress they carry. We are focused on your dog's health, which is why NuVet is part of our guarantee. Review it, and reach out with any questions.
Weepin Oaks Farm & Kennel · Weepin Oaks Boxers
Our Guarantee
- This puppy is guaranteed purebred and registerable with the AKC (American Kennel Club).
- Our puppies are guaranteed to be in good health to the best of our knowledge.
- All shots are current, and each pup is free of obvious defects at delivery.
- We do not refund money if you change your mind for any reason.
- A change of environment can severely stress a puppy.
- Minor issues such as diarrhea, Coccidiosis or wormy stool are common and must be treated. These are the purchaser's responsibility and should be checked by a veterinarian. This also covers Parvo, Corona virus and Giardia. Minor health problems that medication or surgery can cure are not covered by any guarantee.
Disclaimer
- Weepin Oaks Boxers (Margie McMillan) is not responsible for anything that may happen to the puppy or dog after it leaves the property.
- Deposits are not refunded unless the puppy or dog dies before pickup.
Buyer's Responsibilities
- Have the puppy or dog examined by a licensed veterinarian within 72 hours of delivery. The seller must be informed immediately of the examination result by e-mail or in writing, as we need it for our files.
- Provide the puppy or dog with routine preventive care, including but not limited to: annual physical examinations by a licensed veterinarian, and following veterinarian guidelines for vaccinations and dewormings.
- The puppy or dog must be paid in full no less than one (1) week before the shipping date, or all monies paid and all claims to the puppy or dog will be forfeited.
- The puppy must be registered with the AKC, or this guarantee and contract is null and void.
Health Guarantee
This puppy is guaranteed until one year of age against fatal and life-altering congenital disease that adversely affects the animal's health, including severe hip dysplasia that hampers a dog's movement and natural gait and may require surgery to correct.
- If the dog dies within this one-year period, the buyer must pay for a necropsy to determine the cause of death. If the cause is congenital, the seller will replace the puppy or dog with a pup of equivalent value to the original purchase.
- All items covered under this guarantee are by replacement only. We do not give refunds.
A puppy showing any serious genetic or congenital defect will be handled as follows:
- The animal must show the defect by one year of age. The seller must be notified of the problem immediately by email or phone with the licensed veterinarian's determination, and two reports from two unassociated licensed veterinarians must state the same puppy with the same problem; the seller will then provide a replacement puppy of equivalent value. This applies only to the original puppy, not the replacement puppy.
- A puppy with a defect must be returned to the seller in good condition, apart from the specified problem, or euthanized with the seller's prior permission at the buyer's expense, to qualify for a replacement puppy. No replacement will be given if the puppy or dog has been bred, spayed, neutered or euthanized without the seller's permission.
- The replacement puppy will be mutually agreed upon by both parties and will be of comparable quality. It is understood that the replacement puppy may not come from the exact same parents as the original puppy. The buyer is responsible for transportation costs to and from the seller for the replacement.
- No refund, in part or in full, will be given.
- This guarantee applies to the original puppy only and is nontransferable to a second party.
- All items covered under this guarantee are by replacement only. The seller will not be responsible for any medical expenses incurred. The buyer is fully aware that owning a puppy or dog means trips to the veterinarian and understands that he or she will be responsible for all payments and transportation costs.
As of the delivery date, the puppy or dog has received proper vaccinations and dewormings by a licensed veterinarian. The buyer has been informed of these and of future vaccinations and dewormings due. The veterinarian's current shot record is provided and should be taken to the buyer's licensed veterinarian for information at the time the pup is vet-checked. Annual shots and health exams are at the buyer's expense, which also includes any illnesses that may occur during the life of the pup or dog.
This guarantee does not cover Coccidia or Kennel Cough, which are common in puppies. Kennel Cough is self-limiting and, like a common cold, must run its course. Any infection caused by untreated Kennel Cough is not covered. Full recovery is expected, and Kennel Cough on its own is not life threatening but should be treated. This guarantee does not cover demodex (red mange) or mange of any type.
The breeder is not responsible for Distemper, Parvo or Corona Virus after the puppy leaves the breeder's property, as these are highly contagious diseases that can be contracted immediately after leaving the breeder. This guarantee does not include fleas, mites, coccidia, giardia or any other intestinal worms or parasites, as they are common in dogs and puppies. We will not be responsible for illnesses or health problems diagnosed after this period of time except where stated in this contract.
A returned puppy or dog must be returned to the seller in good condition, apart from the specified problem, at the buyer's expense. All registration and papers must be returned to the seller.
